TEXAS SUFFERS,

The railroad columns Of THE GAZETTE
yesterday contained this significant para
graph: San official of the Santa Fe said
yesterday that the rush to Caliiornis WAS
so great that at Kansas City tickets were
sold with the understanding that three
days delay might ensue before the hold
ers could secure seats. The Santa Fe is
feeding people forty-eight hours at Kan
sas City until they can get cars to move
them. Are there any cheap rates to
Texas?'
The people OF Texas do not need to
look to passenger blockades at Kansas
City for evidence that special rates are
carrying thousands to California, for
they csn stand in their own doors and
see "California excursion trains" speed
ing over Texas railroads and ACROSS
Texas lands that may be bought at So an
acre, and which offer unequaled ad-
vantages of climate and productlveness.
The people OF Texas see these things and
that is why they interrogate the railroads
of Texas as to the cause.
The railroads that bear passengers
from Kansas City to California have lines
in and to Texas, and the people Of this
state cannot understand why such rail-
roads should make fish of one state
and flesh of another; and, because they
cannot understand why it does not pay
as well to haul people to Texas as to
California, the people of Texas are ask
ing Themselves if the Texas pool is an in
cubus.
There is no hostility to railroads in
this desire of the people for rail-
road aid to immigration, because
immigration must promote railroad
interests in common with all other
interests. The people know that the
pool binds all railroads to one line of
policy and to one rate, and the people
wonder If any one member Of that pool
has q special interest in taking people to
California. Are all the members OF the
Texas pool equally interested in Cali
fornia? Is the pool an incubus to certain
of its members as we'll as to the state?

CHEAP tourist rates to California do
not necessarily mean rate war between
the different lines. The California lines
have agreed on rates from st. Louis and
other eastern points of about 1 cent per
mile, and we hear of no cutting of rates.
When this rate ceases to attract the travel
to the Pacific slope, they will agree to a
further reduction. Meanwhile Texas
people who have put up their money to
secure railroads, will have the pleasure
of seeing crowded trains pass their doors
going to California.

Blaine and Gould.

There is no doubt that one OF the OBJ
iects of Jay Gould's European trip was
to haYe conference with Mr.. Blaine con-
corning the next Presidential campaign
The connection between these two sue
cessful adventures is very close, as was
manifested before and sitter the election
Of 1884. The suspicion that Gould wants
to unload the Western Union Telegraph
upont he government was recently con-
firmed by his emphatic disclaimer of such
a design. He doubtless has many other
schemes in promoting which President
could be very useful, whether Blaine or
Blaine's man, for it is conceded that if
not the candidate himself he will control
the nomination.

Tho Public Land. for the People.


There is one thing the Democratic ad-
ministration at Washington has brought
about which is well worth the cost of the
long struggle that ended in overturning
the Republican party after it had been
twenty-four years in uninterrupted
power. The contest between bona fide
purchasers of railroad grant lands and
the corporations which have hsrried and
worried them has been brought to con-
clusion. The rights Of the settlers have
been maintained. Heretofore the govern
ment has neither corrected the wrongs
done by itself in granting occupied lands
to the railroad companies, nor the wrongs
done by the companies in selling lands to
which they had no right and in. seizing
lands for which they had no sufficient
title. The settler who had no surety Of
justice in an appeal to the courts, where
strong corporations wear out the patience
and the means of private litigants,
has found stalWart friend at last
able and willing to take his part.
The public lands belong to the people,
and 1t is the wisest policy to dispose OF
them In small parcels to actual settlers,
and to nobody else. There should never
be another foot of land granted to corpo-
rations, and the terms of the grants al
ready made should be vigorously enforced
against the grantees. There has been no
act of the government since it was
founded more impoiitic and improVident
than the reckless ana unnecessary waste
and surrender of the public domain.

NEW YORK, Dec. Jacob Sharp was
taken in a carriage this morning from
Ludlow street jail 10 6the sheriff's office.
He was accompsnie by Warden Heating,
deputy sheriff and his grandson, George
Sharp. He seemed very feeble and was
supported on either side by the
warden and deputy sheriff. while he also
leaned heavily on two canes. The order
granting a new trial was settled before
Judge Barrett, and by mutual agreement
between District Attorney Martin and
W. Rourke Cochran, counsel for Sharp,
it was decided that Shsrp's bond be fixed
at $4,000. The District Attorney agreed
to make no opposition to the application
for his admission to bail. The bond was
prepared, Isaac Hendrix and George
Shepherd each justifylng in the sum
n.me j, and few minutes past noon
Sharp was discharged and driven home.

THE SHARP TRIAL.

Jacob Sharp, the arch boodlcr OF New
York who has been tried, convicted and
sentenced to the penitentiary, has secur-
ed new hearing on appeal to the Su-
preme court. Prosecuting Attorney Eel
lows says that he must wait until he re-
ceives the opinion of the court before he
can determine whether or not he will
again prosecute the case. This means
that Sharp will give bail and that his
case will never be tried. He will be q
free man, innocent Of bribe-giving, al
though there are men in the penitentiary
for receiving brides from him. They
violated the laws and had to leave the
country or go to prison, but Sharp can re-
main at home and in the eyes Of the law
be q pure and sinless man. Such 9
travesty on justice is seldom seem, and it
is such things that furnish the food for
anarchy. When it becomes generally
known that the criminal laws Of the coun-
try cannot be enforced against million

a Few Intsrrogatories.
Austin Dispatch

As considerable discussion has arisen
about the state capitol, many people are
anxious to know who nave represented
the states interest in work that has
cost her three millions of acres of land.
To allay this anxiety, the Dispatch pro-
pounds TO the honorable state capitol
board the following interrogatories, re
specttully asking specific replies:
l. Are those managing the states in
terests skilled architects? If so, when,
where and how did they study their pro-
fession?
,. To what association of architects do
they now belong or hsve any of them ever
belonged?
8. What body of architects has or will
now endorse all or any of them as skilled
in the profession?
4. What individual architect of good
standing in the profession will now re-
commend them or any one of them as
qualified for the position ne holds?.
These are pertinent questions, and can
not be pooh-poohed out OF court. The
law creating the position of superinten
dent plainly and explicitly says there
shall be appointed ga superintendent
who shall be a skillful architect" II
such an one has been appointed and filed
the position, well and good; if not, no
time should be lost in correcting the
error.
Satisfactory answers to these interrog-
atories are due the people, and would
serve to allay much apprehension.
The Dispatch trusts that the Capitol
Board, or some individual member, will
return specific answers TO these specific
questions. It's columns are open free OF
charge for any communication on the
aubiopt

ares, others will feel that laws are unjust
and discriminating and will soon learn TO
evade or violate them. There are nice
ways of expressing things, but the plain
truth is the best and the plain TRUTHS that
Sharp bribed the blind goddess in some
way or other. His wealth has kept him
out of the penitentiary and will keep him
out. VINO he bribed or how he succeeded
IN having the Supreme court OF the state
overturn the proceedings of the lower
courts and do violence to the sentiments
of all law sbiding people cannot be ascer-
tanned, but to 8 man like Sharp, who has
made bribery the labor OF his life, 1t IS
DOUBTLESS plain. It is unfortunate that at
time when anarchy is plotting against
our government that one of the mostpow-
erful appeals of anarchy should be brought
so prominently forward. A New York
jury has just assessed punishment
upon Herr Most because that blather-
skite used language calculated to incite
people to violate the laws, and Sharp
though guilty beyond doubt, though
tried, convicted and sentenced-cannotb be
punished because, as is popularity be-
lieved, he is q millionaire. Prostituting
our courts of justice with such farcical
proceedings will bring about It's own con-
sequences, and they will not be for the
good of New York city or the country.

THE young women Of New York city
have just found out that they can attend
the theater without male escorts, but
they go in squads. All the gateways are
now open to women the same as to men,
making it possible for them to do what they
will in the way OF money making and still
retain character and position. Women OF
the highest social position go upon the
stage; ladies of gentle birth and breeding
are store keepers, horse breeders, hen
fanciers aRd so on. Surely they ought to
have the right to take in the show in pairs
or bevies, or even singly if they choose.
